LEGISLATURE. ., A bill to abolish public executions wm ordered lo be ongrussod by a vote of 48 to 10, in the House, tlm morning - - ,The Committee of Conference have agreed upon an Apportionment bill, and reported to the House thin afternoon. By a cursory examination of its provisions we are convinced that it gives our opponents on undue advantage i but we are at the same time well convinced that it is better than wu havo had for some' yours, and with proper efforts on the part of the Whigs will secure us a majority in both branches of the nuxt Legislature. It will require effort, untiring effort, but it can bo done. Our opponents are pretty certain of 17 Senators under it, while there are three or four districts somewhat doubtful, in which they have the advantage. The House stands about H'J lo 32, in tn ordinary contest ; leaving 8 doubtful. Tho floats in the bill are objectionable; not from their party bearing or arrangement, but upon still higher grounds. Wo have no doubt, however, that the Whiff memhers of the committee faithfully labored to secura a better bill, and wo shall not seek to interpose an obstacle in the way of the passage of the one they have unanimously agreed upon and presented. There is a considerable amount of business yet to bo acted upon by the Senate; but wo think the session will be brought to a close at least as soon as Monday week; and if there are no "constitutional objections in the way, an adjournment may be had some duy next week. THEY COME! Tho subscribers fur the campaign Journal are coming in thick and fust We rccoivod nearly fifty from one post office, tliis morning. The Whig spirit is fuirly amused in Ohio, and it exhibits itself in the right manner. Let the papers and Iho documents bo circulated in the coming campaign as they have never before been in Ohio. Wo have a desperate foe to meet, and a groat victory to achieve. Our opponent know and admit that if defeated iho defeat will bo a Waterloo one. They cannot recover from it they cannot retrieve their fortunes. Once permitted to enjoy the genial sunshine of Whig policy in Htolo nn (I Nution, tho people will havo no relish for, no wish to return to tho husks of Loco Focoism. Already does the country begin to enjoy the wholesome fruits of one Whig men cure, and it is producing a rapid and universal conviction in the public mind, which must be death to Loco Pucnistn. The wholo artillery of the party is directed against it in hopes of convincing men, against tho evidence of their own senses, that that measure is impoverishing and plundering them. They become more desperate as the campaign approaches, and forgo foul slander., thick and fust, against our candidates, against tho Harrison Whigs of '40, against tho Clergy end the Ladies! Yes, even tho ladies must bo tho objects of slandor and vituperation ! Against the efloits of men thus desperate we must oppose facts and arguments unsparingly. Wo must disabuse the minds of their followers, dispel prejudices and errors and force hume conviction by the dint of untiring labor. Our weapon is the press. It is all powerful, all sufficient, if brought to bear upon the enemy at every point Let the watchword, then, continue tu hn "Organixo! circulate papers and documents ! "and all will be well! THE GAME OP THE HARPS!! Tho hard-money tacticians profess to be vory much alarmed because of the passage of so many Hmk Kills, by the House. Now, wo hopo they wilt not show that alarm by defeating them atL We ore uncharitable enough to believe that by their empty alarms their panic cry of Ranks! Banks!! Banks:.! they hope to compass the defeat of all Uie bills. Had tho Whigs passed asingle bill, tho wholo artillory of (he hards would nave been directed against it, as "one of tho most mofulrou projects for plundering the people, evor invented by man! Tho people would havo been summoned to tho defence of their liberty against the assaults of an engine more terrible than the I'aixan Gun, the Trojan Horse, or the Roman Battering Ram! It would have boon likened unto the most hideous monster of fabled antiquity, with all tho heads of the Hydra, eyes more numerous than the Argus, arms like Briarins, and foel cloven like those of Satan himself. Yes, the hair of these "people -loving, monopoly hating hards, would havo stood forth like quills of fretted porcupine; while with bauds lifted in holy horror, flesh clinging to their bones, and eyes starting from their sockets in very terror, they would have called upon the people to awaken to the inroads of a foe uioro deadly than tho poisoned Upas. "Nye's sow and pigs," would have been transformed into tho Tuscan boar, and from every hill and glen the "iinterrified" would have been rallied to the deadly chose. But, the Whigs of the House have, as it were, forestalled the game. They have passed two Bank Bills of a general char acter, with sovcral of a local stamp. 1 hey have tax ed ingenuity and financial skill to furnish a measure suited lo the wants of iho pooplo. Tho result of their labors is before tho Semite, and it is Tor that body to say whether tho people of Ohio shall havo what Gov. Shannon says Ihcy so much need ua cur renrs their own. But a few weeks or a month since, tho Whigs were called upon to bring forward their bank bill, and wore charged with avoiding a general issue by act ing upon propositions for a low local banks alone. The "democrats? wo wore told, hid presented Bart- ley's bill and it remained fur tho Whigs to present their alternative or substitute. The Hcnato havo an opportunity of testing a substitute. If they hnve a preference between the bills presented oy tho Uouso, let them express that preference by their votes, and if they seo proper to throw tho responsibility of its operations upon the Whigs, thero will, wu aaxuro them, be no complaint on our part But we ask that hard money men, who are opposed alike to all banks and bank paper, will not seek to conceal their true position and disguise their sentiments longer, by de feating both tho bank bills from tho House, while they pretend to be favorable to "ire regulated hanks!" Wo hope, also, that they will not unnocessanly do Iny action upon these bills in order to avoid a direct vote upon them, undor the pica of a tronf of lime! "WHEAT UP-BANKS DOWN!!" "This time one near ago. whoat was selling hero at 50 cents per bushel, and a drug at that .Voir, it is bringing tt cents, and we have two banks low than then! Ohio Patriot. Then, it seems the Tariff Uu not entirely destroyed the Canadian market; or, if so, it has opened some other! The Tariff after all, docs not "bring down the price of produce, while it increases the cost of all tho Farmor has to buy as wo have beon repeatedly told by its enemies. If Wheat has advanced 15 cents in the course of one yoar, under tho Tariff; wo may reasonably hopo that it will soon be at a fair price, if that Tariff is continued! How completely do fads contradict the croaking and thoorios of Loco Focus, and how frequently do we find them contradicting themselves and refuting their own arguments, in their efforts to sustain tho doctrines of the "progressive democracy" against those unchangeable doctrines of the old and true democratic school, of which Washington, Madison and Jefferson wore the founders. But, says the Loco Fooo editor, wo have ''tro Ranks leu Granted, air. But,, Wilson Shannon tella us thai "as we destroy our oum paper circula tion, its place will be mainly supplied by the paper of other States!" He proves this, by facts of a most conclusive nature, and proves also that this foreign paper is not as good or as safe as our own! We think our case is mado' out. A FLARE UP IN WAYNE! While absent from his seat in order to feel the public pulse touching his vote on the Wooster Bank bill, Gen. Lamm addressed the citizens of Wooster, by appointment. The flare up thero was even more sign til thnn at Canton. After ho had concluded his speech, as wo learn from the Wayne County Democrat, resolutions were introduced approving his course on the subject of banking. " Mr. Dyers, the Auditor, took the Boor and, amid much uproar, denounced Air. La inn and tho Bank clique by whom he had been governed. A Mr. Hcndrio got the floor and denounced tho Auditor and his hard money clique of oflico holders. A Mr. Miller then enrne up to the rescue. He cried aloud and ceased not to denounce Mr. Lahm and his bank bill with its "individual Ua bility humbug" until the meeting applied tho gag, by yelling for the question. Mr. Miller then called upon "Me democracy" who were opposed to the resolutions to fotlow him and leave tho meeting, when there was a perfect rush of the hards for the door, and three cheers from the same indomitable company for their gallant leader, Miller! Three cheers for Lahrn. still louder, followed in order and tho resolutions were passed 1 On the Monday evening following, there was a regular row on Iho same subject at a Hickory Club meeting; after which the hard retreated to some body's sitting room, determined that they would bask in the sunshine of "unadulterated democracy" of the progressive" order, with none to molest or to make them afraid ! With such discordant views and feelings, Loco Focoism is insane enough to ask tho people of Ohio to entrust power in its hands and perpetuate ts ability to work mischief and nun ! Who so vain us to suppose that good can come out of such counsels? There is a radical difference of opinion in the ranks of the Loco Loco party of Ohio. Much the larger proportion of the leaders and drill-mnjors are utterly opposed to banks and bank paper. Their whole arguments and labors are designed to bring into discredit any other circulating medium than a hard money one! If they coalesce and unittt during tho coming campaign, it will only be by the force of party drill, and with a viow to retain power and spoils. With their object secured, they would once inoro commence their war upon the few remaining institutions, and their heart leanness would stand out in all its deformity. There are those who, like Gov Shannon, Messrs. Lahm, Miller, Armstrong, Johnson, and others, may be honestly opposed to the schemes of tho hard-money men; but ihey will bo cither driven, deceived, or cajoled into tho ranks again and will bo, pcrlnps without design, instrumental in strengthening the hands of that lt central clique" they havo so bitterly denounced and whose power they havo been made to feel so sorely. The only hopes tho people havo of securing a sound paper currency are through the Whig party. They are the honest and sinccro advocates of tho kind of circulating medium tho State needs and must have beforo it can bo truly prosperous. Those of our opponents who agree with us on this point, will be compelled to cut loose from the leaders ot Loco Focoism in Ohio, or to give up their settled convictions of right and duty. If they are not already, they will soon bo convinced that there is no middle course. It there are any who doubt this, let them read the following from the "Katida Venture? special favorite with Mr. Tod and the "central clique:" Duty or tiik Democratic Prrsb. To expnso tho corruptions, dnnjcrs, and contemplated frauds of tho bunking system. Ii i now ilia iu,iwii iuvm of ibis people, unless ccrlnin bonk chatters are repealed, to be again defrauded and plundered and a tearful responsibility will rest upon that portion of the press that shall have withheld its warnings.

Amonir thoso which have taken a prominent stand in denouncing the foul treason and perjury are the Cincinnati Sun, Marion Democratic Mirror, Western Einnire.

Wo now dope lunt our Jicmocrntic coicmporarirs II admit tint the only true irround nn which the party of pnnuRr.ss can successfully and honestly rally is that of tii r Coustitutiow Ann its Cubhency." There cannot bo a medium ground. Tho Moneyed Aristocracy will never submit, as (ten. Jackson onco said, "to any divided empire." The rapacious and unholy spirit of Monopoly will never cease its war- tare until it lias estaDiuuicd us ausoiuie nomination. All attempts at reforming, tinkering, or compromising with tho Banking System; tnnit, as it has heroloforo, prove tcorse than abortivo. The system is inherently corrupt, and hostilo lo Equal Rights and the only true pmitiun tor tlio democracy is unquauned opposition to it A SIGN IN CONNECTICUT! Tho following is from the Christian Freeman, an abolition paper published in Connecticut Everything indicates thut the forlorn hope of Loco Focoism is a vain one: Wm. II, Biiri.rioii, Kq Sin I wish through your paper, to say to the Liberty party voters of tho 17th Senatorial district, that their recent nomination of Senator, mado at Cornwall, was entirely without my knowledge or consent. Tho first intimation that 1 received of tho fact, that 1 was a candidate, was mado known to mo to day.

Mr. MKHAnr: It was not my intention to notice atoll tho communication which appeared in your paper lust Wednesduy evening, relative to a Song 1 Book published by mo trusting that U10 principles on which I had endeavored to conduct my business in this cily for a lung scries of years, would prove an ample shield of protection Against the base insinuation of attempting to palm off on the public, un der tho guiso of a new cover or title page, an old fur a new publication. But it bus been intimated to ine, thai, from the character and bearing of that communication, if allowed to pass unnoticed, an inference might arise in tho minds of distant persons, unacquainted with the circumstances, prejudicial to the Whig cause. Although I can scarcely think that mich would be tho effect with any who are disposed to view the matter in a proper light, yet I cannot suffer an act of mine to afford even a colorable pretext for any inference of that kind. What then were the inducements for the new cover nud title page ? Simply these : I had a considerable number remaining on hand of the edition of the Log Cabin Song Book, published by me in 18-10, some of which, from having remained 111 my stoie room some two or three years, had become soiled, and the covers and edges of the leaves otherwise injured. As tho spirit of Whig song singing had ngain becomo fashionable, it occurred to me, that my long neglected song book might, if brushed up and put into a saleable condition, come again, to sume little extent, in vogue ; and hence the new cover. The name of Whig Song Book for the title, with the embellishments, was assumed in place of the old ones, ns being more in accordance with th true spirit and design of the work, and certainly not anticipating for a moment, that I was thereby attempting to mako a new book, or that I should be subjecting myself to Iho imputation of designing to sell it as such. The preface and the titlo on the first page commencing tho songs, remain precisely nn they were in Irj lO, and 1 must certainly have hud very litte respect for the sagacity of my customers, to imagine they would purchase the book us new, merely from the fact of its having a new cover and title page. We do, indeed, occasionally meet with mere title page-readers, but the purchasers of Whig song books are, ut tho present time, too deeply imbued with the spirit which provades and animates those works, to buy a bonk merely from a knowledge of its cover or title page. This, Mr. Editor, is the plain, unvarnished history of tins very grave and important manner for news-piper discussion, and I am inclined to think your readers will conclude, that it bus no very great claim to uie imposing altitude in viiich your correspondent has placed it Had the cover or title page borne the date of 1814, or tho book been advertised as a new work, it would then have been quite time for him to come out with his animadversions ; neither of which was the case, nor was it ever dcstirncd to ohVr it tor sale as new. ISAAC N. WHITING. Columbus, Saturday, Feb. 2, IH44. P. H.

BAR MEETING ON LAW REFORM, On the Ui of March, lri44. a vcrv numerous meet ing of the Cincinnati Bar was held, pursuant to public notice, in the room of the Superior Court, for the purpose of considering the bill now pending in the aermooi umo lur me amendment ut too judicmry system. ln motion, the meotinjr was organized bv callintr Steimikm Fai.es, Esq., to the Chuir, and appointing o. m.uanuno a. u. w. warier, secretaries. un motion ot VV. M. Lorry. Use- the Chairman appointed the following members ut the Bar a committee for the purpose of expressing tho opinions of this meeting tnxm the subject of tho Uw reform, as contemplated by the bill before mentioned, viz: v. At. uorry, u. Al. Spencer, H. F. Chase, J. A. Pugh, F.Walker, Rufns King, A. E. (jwynne, C. S. Telford, W. S. Groesheck, and Rufus Hodges. Tho committee retired a short lime, and rennrtpd the following preamble and resolutions which were unimfiouffy adopted : Whereas, 1 lie Cincinnati liar have been advised that there is ptmding in the Sonatn of Ohio "A Bill f, ,..blUhiUtr j, l 'hm.r.or Cnnrl in Ohio, Slid d,- lining its powersand another bill "to abolish second triuls of fact in tho Supremo Court on circuit" the passage of both which measures will bo regarded as a signal reform of the administration of justice; there f ro, I. Jiesolvtd, That this Bar is decidedly in favor of ine separate Mianccry court system. 1. liecautio it will be an immense saving 111 the great items of time mid money to the public. 4. iiecatiso me judges 01 tho existing courts have not time to attend to chancery caves; especially tho Supreme Court on circuit, which docs nut hear argument nn that account 3. Because a separation of tho chancery and com mon law jurisprudence would unsuru greater profi eienry in both law and equity. 4. Uecausu it tho present courts are relieved from the mass of chancery cases they will dispose of tho common law business with ability and despatch. . iiccause, Dy means ot separate chancery courts, hancory cases will be decided without delay, and with the utmost accuracy. The cases could bo heard as soon as they were ready ami if appealed could be tried at once. The ducisuns of the courts would bo undo under every advantage and soon becomoauthority. II, Krsotvct, 1 uat wo are in lavor of tho Appoint ment ot one Chancotlor, tn sit as the Court of Rnview in chancery cases, whoso wholo business shall be the correction of errors in the district chancery courts. 111. Hcsolvea That wo think it would he more economical and judicious to have twice or thrice as many chancery districts ns aro profmcd by the chancery act; and no m isters of the rolls. IV. Hut, Jtesolveit, I hat wo are for separate chan- corr courts under tho hill of the judiciary committed as it stands, if tho Legislature will nut accept our suggestion. We aro further of opinion, and therefore V. Ilciolvedt Tint thopresentsystoinof appealing common law cases indiscriminately tn tho Supremo Court should be abolished for the following reasons ; 1. Jlecauso 11 is very expensive; 2. Because it is unnecessary to try the fuels of a cose twice, once by tho Common Pleas and again by the supremo Court on Circuit; it, It is a groat annoyance to suitors, jurors and witnesses, to have a second trial of the same fucts as a matter of course in tho Supreme Court ; 4. Because such a system f Ivors delay for the mere purpose of delay, which after amounts to a denial of justice; iiecatiso such demy is equally injurious to tho profession and to the public ; (I Because the judges of iho Supreme Court must be relieved of the burthen of these second trials or brenk down under it Iho present system has al ready overtasked their utmost powers, as they have again and again declared 7. BecaiHe abolishing those appeals of course to the Supremo Court will elevate tho character of the Common Ploas from a formal tribunal into a Court whore trials of fact will be final and (ho legal decis ions of iho judges absolute, unless errors can be shewn. VI. Resolved, That by tho adoption of these measures of Liw Reform, we consider that the standard of tho profession will bo elevated, bee use Lawyers will soon chooso their departments, and tho rapid and satisfactory disposition of their cases will oncournge tliem to excel. VII. Rewtvedt That thoso proceedings bo printel in the papers of this City and Columbus, and that a copy be sent to each of delegation in both branches of the Legislature and tn the chairmen of the Judiciary committees in the Senate and Uuuso of Representatives.VIII. Remlvedt That a committee of three bo appointed by the Chair for the piirjKute of laying this pre imblo and resolutions before the legislature, and to take such other incus ores as will conduce to the adoption of tho proposed amendments of our judiciary system. Whereupon, the Chair nppoiniod Judges Sponcer and Walker and Mr. Corry that committee. Whilo the question wa pending on the adoption of the resolutions, there was an animated and harmonious discussion of the subject of Law nefunn in which Messrs. Corry, Walker, Chase, Telford, King, Jones, Pratt, Hodges, Gallagher, Kenna and Corwin participated, after which the resolutions were adopted without a dissenting voice. On motion of Rufus King, Esq. tho meeting proceeded to consider the proposition now pending beforo Congress lo remove the Circuit Court of the United H tut os from Cincinnati In Columbus, and it was resolved as follous: 1. lirmhfd, That tho Bar of Hamilton county deem it highly inexpedient for Congress to remove the July session of tho Circuit Court of the United States from Cincinnati to Columbus, and directs Uie officers uf this meeting to forward a copy of this resolution at once to our Representative in Congress. 2. Hego'vtd, That a committee of three be appoint ed by the Chair whose duty it shall be to prepare a statement of the amount of business done in said Court, whence it comes, and the reasons generally for holding at least one Term of said Court in the city of Cincinnati, and to forward the sumi to iho Senators and Representatives in Congress, from the State of Ohio, as soon as possible & Resolved, That in the opinioa of the Bar of this county, the population and extent of this State and the amount ot business transacted in the UmtcdStatcs Courts in Ohio, demand the division of the Slate into two Districts and that they recommend such a division by the northern line of the counties through which the National Road passes, Mesjrs, King, Gwynneand Burnet were appointed the committee, under Mr. King's second resolution. The meeting was requcstod to take notice of other subjects connected with law reform, but of a local character, and it was agreed that tho Bar would reassemble for tho purpose of receiving a report of iho committee thereon, on next Sttorday afternoon at 3 o'clock. The Chair appointed Messrs. Chnso, Riddle and Telford that committee, and then, on motion, the meeting adjourned. Bitti'iiUi f alL3, inairman. 8. M. Hart, ) A. G. W. Carter, Secretaries. THE FUNERAL CEREMONIES AT WASHINGTON.Corrcipotidcnre of the rialtimnrc Anicrirnn. Washington, Mirch 2, 1844. The melancholy scene is over, und the dead aro buried. All that the living could do to testify their resjiect for the memory of tho deceased all that could bo done lo sympathize with the surviving widows, orphans and friends, some of whom in their very lives carry with them a living death in brief all that public respect and privato friendship could do to soothe the thorny pillow of death and the grave has been done. The day hus been almost as gloomy ns the occasion, and if possible has cast a gloomier coloring1 over the wholo scene, but in no rerqicct hus it tnkeii from tho ceremonies so extensively planned to pay tribute to those who have gone. The Military of the District have vied with the Civil Departments of the three cities in manifesting their respect and sorrow. The Corporations of Alexandria, Georgetown and Washington were all present with tho volunteer companies of tho three cities. It was announced thut the Procession would leave the President's House at precisely eleven o' clock, but tho protracted services there and the de lay previous 111 making all reatly tor tho occasion made it nearly two hours later. The Senators and Representatives in Congress met at hull past ten o'clock in tho Halls of the two Houses of Congress Conducted by their presiding officers and nth or officers of the two bodies they nr-rived at tho President's House about half past eleven. The bodies of the deceased were laid out in the Eist Room, presenting in iho habiliments of the gravo which covered them a sceno sadly in contrast with the usual festivities of the place. The admissions to the Executive mansion were confined to the privileged few, but the East Room was full, and ninny of those present were mourners as relatives and friends or oilicial associates. The Maryland delegation were all present lo follow as principal mourners tho hearse designed for Mr. Max cy. The President and his household were nlso present with oil the officers of Government Civil und Military. The scene was far more impressive than pen or tongue can describe. Without the President's House, and upon the Avenue immediately in front of the Executive Mansion, were the Millilary, Cnpt. Ringgold's Company of Flying Artilery being upon the riuht, and the Marine Corps of the Washington Navy Yard upon the left. Tho scene here, loo, was must imposing. The flags were clothed in mourning, and every one bore some badifo of sorrow about his person. Several hundred Clerks with a badge of mourning upon their left arms were also present, preceded by the Clerks of the Slate and Navy Departments, whoso Chiefs hnve been token from them by the recent fatal calamity.At twelvo o'clock tho Funeral Address, which had been preceded by prayer from the Ruv. Dr. Lahrik, and tho reading of a chapter from the appropriate book of Joh, was made by the Rev. Mr. Buti.er. Preparations were iinmndintplv niiidctn fortn th? pro-cuMsiun, uui an uoiir passed beforo u u,. n.v Avenue. From the President's House to the Capitol every window and door-way was lined with people, ami the crowd of strangers and citizens was thus detained for hours. The procession extended nearly from the Treasury Department to tho foot of the Capitol, and was two hours on its way from tho Executive mansion to the Congressional Burying Ground.

Dear Sir Loco Focoism in Delaware is no more. We hardly know whether to laugh or cry laugh at the immense vote which wo shall, without exertion, give Henrv Clay or cry at tho loss of the sport wo anticipated during tho coming campaign. Tho Stale Convention, which mot al Dover on tho 22d, blew up without making any nominations or appointing Delegates lo Uie Baltimore l,oco Convention, thereby virtually mirrendcring iho courso for us to walk over. They did not refuse lo go into Van Bu-rrn's Convention oil account of their preference for Cnlhoun. The mass of the party are in favor of Gen, Cass, and instructed their Delegates (many of them Von Buren olfice-seekers) to send Cass lele-gutes; consequently they could not please themselves and their constituents both, and did nothing. This has caused a largo number of tho honurt portion of the party to come out for Clay.

By the proceedinjrs of the late Columbus Conven tion, as published in to-day's Register, it will be seen that Hon, MORDECAI BARTLEY is the hoscn Whiir candidate for Governor of the areal State of Ohio. His nomination is deemed a most, judicious one, and was responded to by the assembled thousands present, with enthusiastic shouts that were equal to Amos Kendall's "baby-wakcrs" of '40. mr. u. lias Decn identified with the Buckeye State irom its earliest history, and, in the language of Mr. Pcesdale of the Journal, whether "as a member of Congress, a member of the Legislature, Register of uie luiiu uince, mid in various otuor capacities, he has reflected, by his fidelity and wisdom, honor up on himself and those by whoso favor bo was elevated." 1 lie county 111 which Mr. Hartley resides, (llich land) is one of the strongest nests of Locofoco-oc racy that can be mustered in any one county in the State; yet tho Whig friends there, in viow of the popularity ot our candidate, even among his political opponents, and relying upon their own efforts, promises to reduce the loco majority in the county aforesaid, to the "mere shadow of a shade P us now ioDes.iiARTf.Er.

We surrender a larire buuco of to-day's paper to the pro ceedings and nn account of the great Whig Slate Convention ot the 4d ult. i he length ot these articles compels us to be brief in our notico of this vast iratheriiiir, of the people. It is sufficient to say that harmony and union characterized the proceed ings of this body through all its deliberations. The north part of the state having been neglected tor a number of years, it was deemed but on act of justice to give that section of Ohio the candidate. Accordingly, MORDECAI BARTLEY, of Richland county, an early settler of the State, a true and tried Whig, a worthy and most deserving citizen, was nominated ns tho Whig candidate. This selec tion gave universal satisfaction, ns was manifest from the deafening huzzas of the people, when the nomi nee presented himself before the convention, and ac cepted ot the nomination. junesvitle Republican Our Candidate for Governor. There was a glorious gathering nf the people at Columbus, on the twenty-second, and Al oriikcai Hartley, ot Kiculnnd county, was proclaimed the next Governor of Ohio, by the hoarty and unanimous voice of from five to eight thousand Win its. Jho choice is a good one, and will be heartily responded tn from all ports of the State. Mr. Bartlry, although the father of the Mr. Hartley, Die present presiding officer of thu Senate, is nevertheless one uf the soundest and best W lugs of tho land ; and his elevation to the guber notorial chair will reflect credit upon the State, Vonntaui Reporter.

I lie convention was much larger, and more enthu mastic than the one of the 10th of Junuary. It will be seen by the proceedings, that the Con vention nominated Uie Hon. MORDECAI BART LEY, of Richland county, as the Whig candidate for Governor of this Stole, and we have not the feast doubt of his election by a majority of thousands, Mr. Barti.ey hus heretofore represented this coun ty in Congress for several years. He is an honest man, of good sense, of excellent character, and will faithfully execute the duties uf Governor of the groat State of Ohio. The people of Huron county know him, and they will uive hnn a triumphant ma jority tor Uovernor, as they hove hithertofore repeat edly done lor congress. Huron lirjitctor. Duncan's Bankino Law.

Capital at Ihe cast, seeking investment, is now very abundant, and is every day becoming more so, from the hiL'h prices realized oy the sale 01 American cot tons. Wo hope the Legislature will give this bill a careful examination, regardless ot what hard money croakers may say on the subject, fur as to them, we do not belie vo they could be mode satisfied even with the hard, unless they could have it all to tliem- sclves.

If the Whig parly hod taken tins ground in the session of lrw-R instead of carrying (he loud nf tho old fsshioned bonking system on their shoulders, they would not so often have been found in the minority in this State. the Whigs ot INow York greatly strengthened themselves by passing the free banking law, and wo trust those of Ohio will profit by Uie example. Mr. Duncan's bill is good, will work, if made a law, incalculable bo ue tils to the State, and therefore may he relied on as a safe party measure. Toledo Blade.

LEGISLATURE. ., A bill to abolish public executions wm ordered lo be ongrussod by a vote of 48 to 10, in the House, tlm morning - - ,The Committee of Conference have agreed upon an Apportionment bill, and reported to the House thin afternoon. By a cursory examination of its provisions we are convinced that it gives our opponents on undue advantage i but we are at the same time well convinced that it is better than wu havo had for some' yours, and with proper efforts on the part of the Whigs will secure us a majority in both branches of the nuxt Legislature. It will require effort, untiring effort, but it can bo done. Our opponents are pretty certain of 17 Senators under it, while there are three or four districts somewhat doubtful, in which they have the advantage. The House stands about H'J lo 32, in tn ordinary contest ; leaving 8 doubtful. Tho floats in the bill are objectionable; not from their party bearing or arrangement, but upon still higher grounds. Wo have no doubt, however, that the Whiff memhers of the committee faithfully labored to secura a better bill, and wo shall not seek to interpose an obstacle in the way of the passage of the one they have unanimously agreed upon and presented. There is a considerable amount of business yet to bo acted upon by the Senate; but wo think the session will be brought to a close at least as soon as Monday week; and if there are no "constitutional objections in the way, an adjournment may be had some duy next week. THEY COME! Tho subscribers fur the campaign Journal are coming in thick and fust We rccoivod nearly fifty from one post office, tliis morning. The Whig spirit is fuirly amused in Ohio, and it exhibits itself in the right manner. Let the papers and Iho documents bo circulated in the coming campaign as they have never before been in Ohio. Wo have a desperate foe to meet, and a groat victory to achieve. Our opponent know and admit that if defeated iho defeat will bo a Waterloo one. They cannot recover from it they cannot retrieve their fortunes. Once permitted to enjoy the genial sunshine of Whig policy in Htolo nn (I Nution, tho people will havo no relish for, no wish to return to tho husks of Loco Focoism. Already does the country begin to enjoy the wholesome fruits of one Whig men cure, and it is producing a rapid and universal conviction in the public mind, which must be death to Loco Pucnistn. The wholo artillery of the party is directed against it in hopes of convincing men, against tho evidence of their own senses, that that measure is impoverishing and plundering them. They become more desperate as the campaign approaches, and forgo foul slander., thick and fust, against our candidates, against tho Harrison Whigs of '40, against tho Clergy end the Ladies! Yes, even tho ladies must bo tho objects of slandor and vituperation ! Against the efloits of men thus desperate we must oppose facts and arguments unsparingly. Wo must disabuse the minds of their followers, dispel prejudices and errors and force hume conviction by the dint of untiring labor. Our weapon is the press. It is all powerful, all sufficient, if brought to bear upon the enemy at every point Let the watchword, then, continue tu hn "Organixo! circulate papers and documents ! "and all will be well! THE GAME OP THE HARPS!! Tho hard-money tacticians profess to be vory much alarmed because of the passage of so many Hmk Kills, by the House. Now, wo hopo they wilt not show that alarm by defeating them atL We ore uncharitable enough to believe that by their empty alarms their panic cry of Ranks! Banks!! Banks:.! they hope to compass the defeat of all Uie bills. Had tho Whigs passed asingle bill, tho wholo artillory of (he hards would nave been directed against it, as "one of tho most mofulrou projects for plundering the people, evor invented by man! Tho people would havo been summoned to tho defence of their liberty against the assaults of an engine more terrible than the I'aixan Gun, the Trojan Horse, or the Roman Battering Ram! It would have boon likened unto the most hideous monster of fabled antiquity, with all tho heads of the Hydra, eyes more numerous than the Argus, arms like Briarins, and foel cloven like those of Satan himself. Yes, the hair of these "people -loving, monopoly hating hards, would havo stood forth like quills of fretted porcupine; while with bauds lifted in holy horror, flesh clinging to their bones, and eyes starting from their sockets in very terror, they would have called upon the people to awaken to the inroads of a foe uioro deadly than tho poisoned Upas. "Nye's sow and pigs," would have been transformed into tho Tuscan boar, and from every hill and glen the "iinterrified" would have been rallied to the deadly chose. But, the Whigs of the House have, as it were, forestalled the game. They have passed two Bank Bills of a general char acter, with sovcral of a local stamp. 1 hey have tax ed ingenuity and financial skill to furnish a measure suited lo the wants of iho pooplo. Tho result of their labors is before tho Semite, and it is Tor that body to say whether tho people of Ohio shall havo what Gov. Shannon says Ihcy so much need ua cur renrs their own. But a few weeks or a month since, tho Whigs were called upon to bring forward their bank bill, and wore charged with avoiding a general issue by act ing upon propositions for a low local banks alone. The "democrats? wo wore told, hid presented Bart- ley's bill and it remained fur tho Whigs to present their alternative or substitute. The Hcnato havo an opportunity of testing a substitute. If they hnve a preference between the bills presented oy tho Uouso, let them express that preference by their votes, and if they seo proper to throw tho responsibility of its operations upon the Whigs, thero will, wu aaxuro them, be no complaint on our part But we ask that hard money men, who are opposed alike to all banks and bank paper, will not seek to conceal their true position and disguise their sentiments longer, by de feating both tho bank bills from tho House, while they pretend to be favorable to "ire regulated hanks!" Wo hope, also, that they will not unnocessanly do Iny action upon these bills in order to avoid a direct vote upon them, undor the pica of a tronf of lime! "WHEAT UP-BANKS DOWN!!" "This time one near ago. whoat was selling hero at 50 cents per bushel, and a drug at that .Voir, it is bringing tt cents, and we have two banks low than then! Ohio Patriot. Then, it seems the Tariff Uu not entirely destroyed the Canadian market; or, if so, it has opened some other! The Tariff after all, docs not "bring down the price of produce, while it increases the cost of all tho Farmor has to buy as wo have beon repeatedly told by its enemies. If Wheat has advanced 15 cents in the course of one yoar, under tho Tariff; wo may reasonably hopo that it will soon be at a fair price, if that Tariff is continued! How completely do fads contradict the croaking and thoorios of Loco Focus, and how frequently do we find them contradicting themselves and refuting their own arguments, in their efforts to sustain tho doctrines of the "progressive democracy" against those unchangeable doctrines of the old and true democratic school, of which Washington, Madison and Jefferson wore the founders. But, says the Loco Fooo editor, wo have ''tro Ranks leu Granted, air. But,, Wilson Shannon tella us thai "as we destroy our oum paper circula tion, its place will be mainly supplied by the paper of other States!" He proves this, by facts of a most conclusive nature, and proves also that this foreign paper is not as good or as safe as our own! We think our case is mado' out. A FLARE UP IN WAYNE! While absent from his seat in order to feel the public pulse touching his vote on the Wooster Bank bill, Gen. Lamm addressed the citizens of Wooster, by appointment. The flare up thero was even more sign til thnn at Canton. After ho had concluded his speech, as wo learn from the Wayne County Democrat, resolutions were introduced approving his course on the subject of banking. " Mr. Dyers, the Auditor, took the Boor and, amid much uproar, denounced Air. La inn and tho Bank clique by whom he had been governed. A Mr. Hcndrio got the floor and denounced tho Auditor and his hard money clique of oflico holders. A Mr. Miller then enrne up to the rescue. He cried aloud and ceased not to denounce Mr. Lahm and his bank bill with its "individual Ua bility humbug" until the meeting applied tho gag, by yelling for the question. Mr. Miller then called upon "Me democracy" who were opposed to the resolutions to fotlow him and leave tho meeting, when there was a perfect rush of the hards for the door, and three cheers from the same indomitable company for their gallant leader, Miller! Three cheers for Lahrn. still louder, followed in order and tho resolutions were passed 1 On the Monday evening following, there was a regular row on Iho same subject at a Hickory Club meeting; after which the hard retreated to some body's sitting room, determined that they would bask in the sunshine of "unadulterated democracy" of the progressive" order, with none to molest or to make them afraid ! With such discordant views and feelings, Loco Focoism is insane enough to ask tho people of Ohio to entrust power in its hands and perpetuate ts ability to work mischief and nun ! Who so vain us to suppose that good can come out of such counsels? There is a radical difference of opinion in the ranks of the Loco Loco party of Ohio. Much the larger proportion of the leaders and drill-mnjors are utterly opposed to banks and bank paper. Their whole arguments and labors are designed to bring into discredit any other circulating medium than a hard money one! If they coalesce and unittt during tho coming campaign, it will only be by the force of party drill, and with a viow to retain power and spoils. With their object secured, they would once inoro commence their war upon the few remaining institutions, and their heart leanness would stand out in all its deformity. There are those who, like Gov Shannon, Messrs. Lahm, Miller, Armstrong, Johnson, and others, may be honestly opposed to the schemes of tho hard-money men; but ihey will bo cither driven, deceived, or cajoled into tho ranks again and will bo, pcrlnps without design, instrumental in strengthening the hands of that lt central clique" they havo so bitterly denounced and whose power they havo been made to feel so sorely. The only hopes tho people havo of securing a sound paper currency are through the Whig party. They are the honest and sinccro advocates of tho kind of circulating medium tho State needs and must have beforo it can bo truly prosperous. Those of our opponents who agree with us on this point, will be compelled to cut loose from the leaders ot Loco Focoism in Ohio, or to give up their settled convictions of right and duty. If they are not already, they will soon bo convinced that there is no middle course. It there are any who doubt this, let them read the following from the "Katida Venture? special favorite with Mr. Tod and the "central clique:" Duty or tiik Democratic Prrsb.

Amonir thoso which have taken a prominent stand in denouncing the foul treason and perjury are the Cincinnati Sun, Marion Democratic Mirror, Western Einnire. Cincinnati Knntiirrr, Stark County Demo crat, Newark Advocate, Ml.

Wo now dope lunt our Jicmocrntic coicmporarirs II admit tint the only true irround nn which the party of pnnuRr.ss can successfully and honestly rally is that of tii r Coustitutiow Ann its Cubhency." There cannot bo a medium ground. Tho Moneyed Aristocracy will never submit, as (ten. Jackson onco said, "to any divided empire." The rapacious and unholy spirit of Monopoly will never cease its war- tare until it lias estaDiuuicd us ausoiuie nomination. All attempts at reforming, tinkering, or compromising with tho Banking System; tnnit, as it has heroloforo, prove tcorse than abortivo. The system is inherently corrupt, and hostilo lo Equal Rights and the only true pmitiun tor tlio democracy is unquauned opposition to it A SIGN IN CONNECTICUT! Tho following is from the Christian Freeman, an abolition paper published in Connecticut Everything indicates thut the forlorn hope of Loco Focoism is a vain one: Wm.

Mr. MKHAnr: It was not my intention to notice atoll tho communication which appeared in your paper lust Wednesduy evening, relative to a Song 1 Book published by mo trusting that U10 principles on which I had endeavored to conduct my business in this cily for a lung scries of years, would prove an ample shield of protection Against the base insinuation of attempting to palm off on the public, un der tho guiso of a new cover or title page, an old fur a new publication. But it bus been intimated to ine, thai, from the character and bearing of that communication, if allowed to pass unnoticed, an inference might arise in tho minds of distant persons, unacquainted with the circumstances, prejudicial to the Whig cause. Although I can scarcely think that mich would be tho effect with any who are disposed to view the matter in a proper light, yet I cannot suffer an act of mine to afford even a colorable pretext for any inference of that kind. What then were the inducements for the new cover nud title page ? Simply these : I had a considerable number remaining on hand of the edition of the Log Cabin Song Book, published by me in 18-10, some of which, from having remained 111 my stoie room some two or three years, had become soiled, and the covers and edges of the leaves otherwise injured. As tho spirit of Whig song singing had ngain becomo fashionable, it occurred to me, that my long neglected song book might, if brushed up and put into a saleable condition, come again, to sume little extent, in vogue ; and hence the new cover. The name of Whig Song Book for the title, with the embellishments, was assumed in place of the old ones, ns being more in accordance with th true spirit and design of the work, and certainly not anticipating for a moment, that I was thereby attempting to mako a new book, or that I should be subjecting myself to Iho imputation of designing to sell it as such. The preface and the titlo on the first page commencing tho songs, remain precisely nn they were in Irj lO, and 1 must certainly have hud very litte respect for the sagacity of my customers, to imagine they would purchase the book us new, merely from the fact of its having a new cover and title page. We do, indeed, occasionally meet with mere title page-readers, but the purchasers of Whig song books are, ut tho present time, too deeply imbued with the spirit which provades and animates those works, to buy a bonk merely from a knowledge of its cover or title page. This, Mr. Editor, is the plain, unvarnished history of tins very grave and important manner for news-piper discussion, and I am inclined to think your readers will conclude, that it bus no very great claim to uie imposing altitude in viiich your correspondent has placed it Had the cover or title page borne the date of 1814, or tho book been advertised as a new work, it would then have been quite time for him to come out with his animadversions ; neither of which was the case, nor was it ever dcstirncd to ohVr it tor sale as new.

M. Lorry. Use- the Chairman appointed the following members ut the Bar a committee for the purpose of expressing tho opinions of this meeting tnxm the subject of tho Uw reform, as contemplated by the bill before mentioned, viz: v. At. uorry, u. Al. Spencer, H. F. Chase, J. A. Pugh, F.Walker, Rufns King, A. E. (jwynne, C. S. Telford, W. S. Groesheck, and Rufus Hodges. Tho committee retired a short lime, and rennrtpd the following preamble and resolutions which were unimfiouffy adopted : Whereas, 1 lie Cincinnati liar have been advised that there is ptmding in the Sonatn of Ohio "A Bill f, ,..blUhiUtr j, l 'hm.r.or Cnnrl in Ohio, Slid d,- lining its powersand another bill "to abolish second triuls of fact in tho Supremo Court on circuit" the passage of both which measures will bo regarded as a signal reform of the administration of justice; there f ro, I. Jiesolvtd, That this Bar is decidedly in favor of ine separate Mianccry court system. 1. liecautio it will be an immense saving 111 the great items of time mid money to the public. 4. iiecatiso me judges 01 tho existing courts have not time to attend to chancery caves; especially tho Supreme Court on circuit, which docs nut hear argument nn that account 3. Because a separation of tho chancery and com mon law jurisprudence would unsuru greater profi eienry in both law and equity. 4. Uecausu it tho present courts are relieved from the mass of chancery cases they will dispose of tho common law business with ability and despatch. . iiccause, Dy means ot separate chancery courts, hancory cases will be decided without delay, and with the utmost accuracy. The cases could bo heard as soon as they were ready ami if appealed could be tried at once. The ducisuns of the courts would bo undo under every advantage and soon becomoauthority. II, Krsotvct, 1 uat wo are in lavor of tho Appoint ment ot one Chancotlor, tn sit as the Court of Rnview in chancery cases, whoso wholo business shall be the correction of errors in the district chancery courts. 111. Hcsolvea That wo think it would he more economical and judicious to have twice or thrice as many chancery districts ns aro profmcd by the chancery act; and no m isters of the rolls. IV. Hut, Jtesolveit, I hat wo are for separate chan- corr courts under tho hill of the judiciary committed as it stands, if tho Legislature will nut accept our suggestion. We aro further of opinion, and therefore V. Ilciolvedt Tint thopresentsystoinof appealing common law cases indiscriminately tn tho Supremo Court should be abolished for the following reasons ; 1. Jlecauso 11 is very expensive; 2. Because it is unnecessary to try the fuels of a cose twice, once by tho Common Pleas and again by the supremo Court on Circuit; it, It is a groat annoyance to suitors, jurors and witnesses, to have a second trial of the same fucts as a matter of course in tho Supreme Court ; 4. Because such a system f Ivors delay for the mere purpose of delay, which after amounts to a denial of justice; iiecatiso such demy is equally injurious to tho profession and to the public ; (I Because the judges of iho Supreme Court must be relieved of the burthen of these second trials or brenk down under it Iho present system has al ready overtasked their utmost powers, as they have again and again declared 7. BecaiHe abolishing those appeals of course to the Supremo Court will elevate tho character of the Common Ploas from a formal tribunal into a Court whore trials of fact will be final and (ho legal decis ions of iho judges absolute, unless errors can be shewn. VI. Resolved, That by tho adoption of these measures of Liw Reform, we consider that the standard of tho profession will bo elevated, bee use Lawyers will soon chooso their departments, and tho rapid and satisfactory disposition of their cases will oncournge tliem to excel. VII. Rewtvedt That thoso proceedings bo printel in the papers of this City and Columbus, and that a copy be sent to each of delegation in both branches of the Legislature and tn the chairmen of the Judiciary committees in the Senate and Uuuso of Representatives.VIII. Remlvedt That a committee of three bo appointed by the Chair for the piirjKute of laying this pre imblo and resolutions before the legislature, and to take such other incus ores as will conduce to the adoption of tho proposed amendments of our judiciary system. Whereupon, the Chair nppoiniod Judges Sponcer and Walker and Mr. Corry that committee.

THE FUNERAL CEREMONIES AT WASHINGTON.Corrcipotidcnre of the rialtimnrc Anicrirnn. Washington, Mirch 2, 1844. The melancholy scene is over, und the dead aro buried. All that the living could do to testify their resjiect for the memory of tho deceased all that could bo done lo sympathize with the surviving widows, orphans and friends, some of whom in their very lives carry with them a living death in brief all that public respect and privato friendship could do to soothe the thorny pillow of death and the grave has been done. The day hus been almost as gloomy ns the occasion, and if possible has cast a gloomier coloring1 over the wholo scene, but in no rerqicct hus it tnkeii from tho ceremonies so extensively planned to pay tribute to those who have gone. The Military of the District have vied with the Civil Departments of the three cities in manifesting their respect and sorrow. The Corporations of Alexandria, Georgetown and Washington were all present with tho volunteer companies of tho three cities. It was announced thut the Procession would leave the President's House at precisely eleven o' clock, but tho protracted services there and the de lay previous 111 making all reatly tor tho occasion made it nearly two hours later. The Senators and Representatives in Congress met at hull past ten o'clock in tho Halls of the two Houses of Congress Conducted by their presiding officers and nth or officers of the two bodies they nr-rived at tho President's House about half past eleven. The bodies of the deceased were laid out in the Eist Room, presenting in iho habiliments of the gravo which covered them a sceno sadly in contrast with the usual festivities of the place. The admissions to the Executive mansion were confined to the privileged few, but the East Room was full, and ninny of those present were mourners as relatives and friends or oilicial associates. The Maryland delegation were all present lo follow as principal mourners tho hearse designed for Mr. Max cy. The President and his household were nlso present with oil the officers of Government Civil und Military. The scene was far more impressive than pen or tongue can describe. Without the President's House, and upon the Avenue immediately in front of the Executive Mansion, were the Millilary, Cnpt. Ringgold's Company of Flying Artilery being upon the riuht, and the Marine Corps of the Washington Navy Yard upon the left. Tho scene here, loo, was must imposing. The flags were clothed in mourning, and every one bore some badifo of sorrow about his person. Several hundred Clerks with a badge of mourning upon their left arms were also present, preceded by the Clerks of the Slate and Navy Departments, whoso Chiefs hnve been token from them by the recent fatal calamity.At twelvo o'clock tho Funeral Address, which had been preceded by prayer from the Ruv. Dr. Lahrik, and tho reading of a chapter from the appropriate book of Joh, was made by the Rev. Mr. Buti.er. Preparations were iinmndintplv niiidctn fortn th? pro-cuMsiun, uui an uoiir passed beforo u u,. n.v Avenue. From the President's House to the Capitol every window and door-way was lined with people, ami the crowd of strangers and citizens was thus detained for hours. The procession extended nearly from the Treasury Department to tho foot of the Capitol, and was two hours on its way from tho Executive mansion to the Congressional Burying Ground.

Dear Sir Loco Focoism in Delaware is no more. We hardly know whether to laugh or cry laugh at the immense vote which wo shall, without exertion, give Henrv Clay or cry at tho loss of the sport wo anticipated during tho coming campaign. Tho Stale Convention, which mot al Dover on tho 22d, blew up without making any nominations or appointing Delegates lo Uie Baltimore l,oco Convention, thereby virtually mirrendcring iho courso for us to walk over. They did not refuse lo go into Van Bu-rrn's Convention oil account of their preference for Cnlhoun. The mass of the party are in favor of Gen, Cass, and instructed their Delegates (many of them Von Buren olfice-seekers) to send Cass lele-gutes; consequently they could not please themselves and their constituents both, and did nothing. This has caused a largo number of tho honurt portion of the party to come out for Clay. One of their leading men, who wns run oil their Delegate ticket, has come over and tendered tn tho Clay Club tho Inrge American Eagle owned by hi m, which has heretofore been perched upon tho standard of Loco Focoism. Cor. Phil. Forum. GOV. BARTLEY-THAT IS TO BE. By the proceedinjrs of the late Columbus Conven tion, as published in to-day's Register, it will be seen that Hon, MORDECAI BARTLEY is the hoscn Whiir candidate for Governor of the areal State of Ohio. His nomination is deemed a most, judicious one, and was responded to by the assembled thousands present, with enthusiastic shouts that were equal to Amos Kendall's "baby-wakcrs" of '40. mr. u. lias Decn identified with the Buckeye State irom its earliest history, and, in the language of Mr. Pcesdale of the Journal, whether "as a member of Congress, a member of the Legislature, Register of uie luiiu uince, mid in various otuor capacities, he has reflected, by his fidelity and wisdom, honor up on himself and those by whoso favor bo was elevated." 1 lie county 111 which Mr. Hartley resides, (llich land) is one of the strongest nests of Locofoco-oc racy that can be mustered in any one county in the State; yet tho Whig friends there, in viow of the popularity ot our candidate, even among his political opponents, and relying upon their own efforts, promises to reduce the loco majority in the county aforesaid, to the "mere shadow of a shade P us now ioDes.iiARTf.Er.

We surrender a larire buuco of to-day's paper to the pro ceedings and nn account of the great Whig Slate Convention ot the 4d ult. i he length ot these articles compels us to be brief in our notico of this vast iratheriiiir, of the people. It is sufficient to say that harmony and union characterized the proceed ings of this body through all its deliberations. The north part of the state having been neglected tor a number of years, it was deemed but on act of justice to give that section of Ohio the candidate. Accordingly, MORDECAI BARTLEY, of Richland county, an early settler of the State, a true and tried Whig, a worthy and most deserving citizen, was nominated ns tho Whig candidate. This selec tion gave universal satisfaction, ns was manifest from the deafening huzzas of the people, when the nomi nee presented himself before the convention, and ac cepted ot the nomination. junesvitle Republican Our Candidate for Governor. There was a glorious gathering nf the people at Columbus, on the twenty-second, and Al oriikcai Hartley, ot Kiculnnd county, was proclaimed the next Governor of Ohio, by the hoarty and unanimous voice of from five to eight thousand Win its. Jho choice is a good one, and will be heartily responded tn from all ports of the State. Mr. Bartlry, although the father of the Mr. Hartley, Die present presiding officer of thu Senate, is nevertheless one uf the soundest and best W lugs of tho land ; and his elevation to the guber notorial chair will reflect credit upon the State, Vonntaui Reporter.

MORDECAI BART LEY, of Richland county, as the Whig candidate for Governor of this Stole, and we have not the feast doubt of his election by a majority of thousands, Mr. Barti.ey hus heretofore represented this coun ty in Congress for several years. He is an honest man, of good sense, of excellent character, and will faithfully execute the duties uf Governor of the groat State of Ohio. The people of Huron county know him, and they will uive hnn a triumphant ma jority tor Uovernor, as they hove hithertofore repeat edly done lor congress. Huron lirjitctor. Duncan's Bankino Law.
